_refln.sin_theta_over_lambda
Name:_refln.sin_theta_over_lambda
Aliases:
_refln_sint/lambda
_refln_sin_theta_over_lambda
_refln.sint_over_lambda
Definition:
The (sin θ)/λ value for this reflection.
Type: Real
Units: reciprocal_angstroms
The permitted range is 0.0 → infinity
Evaluation method:
With r as refln
h = r.hkl
G = _cell.reciprocal_metric_tensor
r.sin_theta_over_lambda = Sqrt ( h * G * h ) / 2.
Category:
